Abstract

This paper has been produced as part of the TRKC (Transport Research Knowledge Centre) project of the Sixth Framework Programme. The role of TRKC, as its predecessor project EXTR@Web, is to collect, structure, analyse and disseminate transport research results. TRKC provides comprehensive coverage of transport research in EU programmes as well as key research activities at national level within the European Research Area and selected global programmes. The paper is one of the thematic research summaries (TRS). The TRSs aim at providing a synthesis of research results and policy implications from completed projects. Each TRS deals with a theme according to the classification which the TRKC project has adopted. The theme of this TRS is “road transport”. The first part of the paper includes a brief analysis of the scope of the theme, and a policy review where the main policy developments at EU level are summarised. The second part includes a synthesis of the main findings and policy implications from research projects and is concluded with an overview of the implications for further research.
